Thanks for update. If you ever see a follow up story posted locally please post as we have been following this situation. Did you local article or news say where the body was being taken for ID?
The only thing I can add is to question 1 where I recall JDT saying she took DNV to Pearl in the afternoon. I don't believe she had a specific time listed. Maybe the VI can recall or ask JDT the exact time and whether JDT knew what DNVs plans were for the rest of the evening.
Yes, this was a source of discussion and no little confusion the other night when VI said NO MK and RC at Ollies and then a screenshot was posted which showed JDT clearly stating that MK and RC were at Ollies. Clearly we seem to be having some basic communication issues which are quite unfortunate.
I’m fairly certain I read it in this described linked fb post, which has either been deleted or is no longer publicly available. I did not get a screenshot of it? Perhaps someone else has one for reference?
Thanks for this. I've been searching quite a bit over the past few days and information from the case (particularly the early days seems to have vanished from the web). Even when I had the exact title of the article I am looking for and search for it I have been unable to find many articles. I am not sure why this is happening and I wish I had done a better job early on saving articles. Lesson learned. I'm also finding google search results for the case have been somewhat scrambled. I've been in contact with google and they are researching and restoring as they agree something seems to have happened. Google gave me no ETA on fixing the situation. Has anyone ever seen this happen before?
Nope. I have never seen as much vanished info, that was once there earlier. I have never seen as much confusion scattered about on truthful facts either.
I don't believe there was any negative connotation in the early use of the phrase 'party train' early on in the case. In the very beginning we had no info as to how many people were involved and what the plan was for the evening. The party train phrase captured the idea of a group of unknown size going out to possibly multiple locations and having fun. Don't think it was more than this at all. It wasn't until fairly recently that the situation at Dublins was discovered to be 4 people having a meal and drinks. The Ollies situation was always MK and RC with DK showing up later. Whether DNV was attempting to head over to Ollies after attempting to find her missing phone at Dublins we just don't know as we haven't heard from any of The Party of 4 as to what further plans, if any they had for that evening.
To me the mystery is if there was alot of concern on Thursday by JDT/family about DNV then why wait until Friday to file the report? We talked about this issue quite a bit in previous thread and I don't think a consensus ever developed. In my mind now though I question exactly how 'close' this relationship was between DNV and local 'family' as perhaps it had evolved into something more formal and revolved strictly around scheduling of CT visits since DNV and TT were no longer together (or on break?). If the extent of the connection is strictly scheduling then the note on the door, ask to leave the phone at PF Changs etc. might make a bit more sense. The relationship doesn't appear to be one where multiple people in the 'family' would be frantic about not hearing from DNV and would drop everything get in their cars to go pick up a phone if someone called them and said it was missing. To me on the surface the response from the 'family' was almost casual disregard for DNV with the idea is that she will show up when she shows up. Its hard with no personal knowledge of the players to know if this was a DNV issue or a 'family' issue. All we can see based on the timeline is how the 'family' responded so based on responsiveness I'd have to stick with the 'casual disregard' comment to describe the response.
Your view has been mentioned frequently on prior threads and just might be at the core of what was going on in DNV's life. Sadly we don't know as we haven't heard on WS from direct friends that might have known what was going on. But if the relationship with the 'family' was becoming less casual and more formal then DNV might have been focused on a path to remove custody and this could have upset the apple cart of the family dynamic and certainly possibly their finances. Speculative answer for sure but just might be directionally correct. We shall have to see if more information comes out from friends.
